hi guys, i got my new gun the other week and my friends were messing around with it and then the bit just before the barrel flipped up. i try to push it back down but there is something blocking it and i dont want to jam it down in case something breaks.

So, how do i get it back down:)p)?

sorry i can't go into more detail because when comes to paintball, i'm really not the most technical person, any help is good help!

There's a knob at the back of the marker, make sure that is unscrewed counter-clockwise all the way out, then it should just drop back into place.

The rod coming out of the bolt is supposed to slot into it. If the knob at the back is unsecrewed and it still won't drop into place, jolt the gun back and forth a bit and it should move back into the correct place

LOL, thats not a barrel as you have described, its called the roto-breech which holds the bolt :)

You will need to turn the lever/knob on the back of the angel as Durajim has described to the open position. If the ram doesnt move back , use a allen key to push it back into place. Now you can close the roto-breech, then turn the lever/knob located at the back of the gun to securely lock the breech so it doesnt open when marker is in use.

Yeah, that's probably a better way of doing it, rather than my hap hazard "Shake the bloody thing until it drops back into place" method :p

well Duraj said to "make sure that is unscrewed counter-clockwise all the way out", but it doesnt. However; i can move the ram forward and the breech will close, but it opens back up if i put the marker upside down.
i will go get some plier things to give me more grip to try turn it more.

Poor choice of words, sorry. It should turn pretty much exactly one half of a circle

Turning it all the way to the right as far as it'll go (about 180 degrees) should allow for it to close fully, if not, do as Nitro suggested
